We took our dog to Buffalo Barks in October of 2017. Our dog was attacked by another dog and severely mauled. She was ripped apart so bad that I have asked myself why someone didn’t stop it. Was anyone even watching them??? She died hours later. Don’t take your dog to Buffalo Barks.

I've used them about 3 times and each time was a great experience. They do a great job and pricing is comparable to other groomers.

BEST place ever! Our previous groomer had moved, and before finding this place, every haircut has been horrible! My Chavachon was always returned to me looking like a poodle with way too much puffy hair on top of his head and the rest of his body was shaved so low that you could see his skin! He looked like a skinny little rat! I had to put a sweater on him to make him look somewhat normal. Both dogs always had uneven haircuts. My schnauzer would have uneven eyebrows or stray hair around his ears, that should have been cut. I DO NOT recommend "Oh you dirty dog" as this place is small and dingy, and when a groomer comes out to take your dogs in a back room (which you can't even see!) and she has punked out multicolored hair and way too many piercings, you can't help but worry how your dogs will look when she's done with them; the end result was awful! Bubbles and Barks is a very well maintained buisness. They have a nice waiting and grooming area and it is clean(no smoke or "wet dog" smell)! Additionally, the worker took their time and asked on what YOU wanted for dog haircuts as well as my preference of putting my dogs in separate cages or together (together of course!). I hated the idea of having my dogs put in small cages, but this place had decent sized cages, and when I went to pick up my dogs, I found them both comfy and cozy in a large crate together. My schnauzer can be difficult with his haircut and will nip the groomer who isn't gentle with him (around his ears and feet) and he was an angel at this place. My Chavachon has major anxiety when I leave him anywhere, but this was the first place that I picked up a calm and happy dog. I HIGHLY recommend this place, as well as my dogs, Fritz and Finnegan?

I have taken my Maine C*** cat (a long-haired breed) to Heidi at Bubbles and Barks for one year. She always does a wonderful job on the grooming, takes good care of him and is gentle with him. She seems knowledgeable about her trade and cat care in general. The other staff members with whom I spoke also were friendly and helpful. Before I brought my boy in, I stopped in without an appointment to check the facility out. One of the groomers was happy to show me around and answer my questions, and also make me feel at ease about bringing my shy kitty in to a new place (he'd never been groomed professionally before). I didn't want any scented products or perfumes used on my cat (no one should--their sense of smell is too sensitive for heavy scents) and they were perfectly willing to accommodate that wish. Overall, I am very happy with their services. Cash or check only--FYI.

The service was excellent from phone appointment to pick-up. I could tell instantly by the terminology in the dialogue that they knew what would be required and/or desired for the grooming of a collie, since I have had previous experience with the art of collie grooming necessary for show rings.

I was very pleased from the time I phoned to make the appointment until I picked up my cat after the work was done. Mike, the owner, and Charity, the woman who groomed my cat, were friendly, kind, and reassuring. It turned out that a bath was also included in the quoted price ($45-50). When I picked my cat up, I found her to be even softer than she was before, smelling sweet, and very happy (once she got home, anyway!). Charity also showed me the kinds of tools I could get at a pet shop to keep up on grooming effectively myself. I am very happy with the service Bubbles and Barks provided! My cat is much happier now, too.

They just got a brand new office building and it is very nice. The people are great and they always help me get my pets to the car. They are very caring and treat the animals very well. I know that they groom all types of animals.
